Tareq Aziz went professional at 18 and caused a minor stir in his first month for Chittagong Districts. In his first game he uprooted the stumps of Andy Flower, who was then rated among the world's leading Test batsmen, with his trademark incutter, and followed up with consecutive five-wicket hauls in his next game. He made his one-day debut two months later, collecting 3 for 19 against Pakistan. After some poor performances he fell out of favour for the next three years, but returned with a three-wicket haul - two in the final over - to help Bangladesh beat Zimbabwe in March 2004, their first one-day international win for five years.

He has been plodding away in domestic cricket since playing his last international game in July 2004, and is part of Bangladesh Cricket Board's first-class contracted cricketers.
